I've happened to fall into an AMD Radeon 5970 w/Arctic Cooler. It runs very quiet, and I'd like to use it as the base for a new HTPC.
The problem I'm finding is that most HTPC-ready cases can't fit an AMD 5970.
Any suggestions? My primary goals are as follows:
I'm currently running an Antec 300, and it's fairly quiet and works well on its side, but I don't think it can accommodate the 5970 and it's a bit lacking in ventilation in the right places.
Thoughts/suggestions?

Any suggestions? My primary goals are as follows:
- Quiet
- Lay on its side (flat)
- Ventilation (or a fan) on side panel (which is the top when laying down)
- Fits an AMD 5970 video card
